Having a Q box doesn't automatically mean you get the HD channels, you really should but Sky still charge extra. Are you paying for HD, ultimate package is it called??

HI @Miiss_Ess 

 

Make sure that any recordings are scheduled from the HD channel and not from the older SD channel. 

 

Go into Home - Recordings - Scheduled to check on future recordings to make sure the BBC recordings are from the HD version. 

 

If you find any are  Series Linked from the SD version , first select Remove Series Link , then Select Cancel Recording & then go back to the TV guide to add back on, making sure they are from the HD version

 

NB the SD channel names  do not say SD - but the HD versions say HD at the end 

 

If downloading - again make sure you select the HD version (possibly by using an All Formats option)
